Chapter 131: Who is the target?
readx; Nian Nian didn't know if there were other hints in Ying Yue's last words, could it be that he had already detected the fragrance of Snow Emperor Lotus?
She had doubts in her heart, but she didn't dare to test Yue Yue, that guy was like a cunning fox, and she always had to think twice when talking to him, so as not to be caught up in his words and not know it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The prince sent someone to greet them, Zhu Mei was unwell, out of politeness, he personally went to thank the prince every year, and on the way back, Ying Yue was by his side.
"Who do you say is attacking the convoy?" asked Nian Nian.
"Does the young girl also care?" said Yu Yue looked at her in surprise.
Nian Nian's face froze, "Naturally, those people obviously don't look like ordinary people, and they obviously want to take our lives, do you think I don't care!"
"It is true that they want to take people's lives, but they are not to take everyone's life. Ying Yue shook the folding fan and said lazily.
Nian Nian's eyes rolled, "You mean, the person they really want to kill is the crown prince?"
Yue Yue smiled, "It's not too stupid, then let me ask you why they assassinated the prince?"
"I don't know why, but I know that the death of the prince must be good for them. โ
"That's it, if the prince dies, and dies in the night, the two countries will not be able to marry smoothly, and the princess will lose her support in the night, and King An, if he loses the help of Baimo Kingdom, he will probably not be made the prince, who do you say will benefit the most after such a result?"
Listening quietly every year, I couldn't find a clue, but when I remembered what Zhen Yuhe had overheard the palace maid mention, a flash of inspiration: "Queen!"
Xuan Yue nodded, "Sure enough, the heroes see the same, but what makes me strange is that we have only been gone for less than a day, if they succeed and make Prince Baimo die so close to the imperial capital, they will inevitably be the most suspicious, and they will even provoke a frontal war between the two countries, are they so fearless?"
Nian Nian was stunned, his big eyes stared at the side face of Xuan Yue who was slightly lost in thought, and thought blankly, what is going on today, Xuan Yue actually has questions in her heart, and moreover, she will say it and discuss it with herself, what does this guy want to do, test her IQ?
Ying Yue turned her head and smiled brightly, "Why does the young girl look at me like this, is it ยทยทยทยทยท What do you have to say?"
Nian Nian looked at him coldly, "Yes, I want to say that you can send it here, and I can go back by myself." Then he did not look at him again, and strode back into the carriage.
Thinking about it carefully, Xuan Yue's words were not unreasonable, they could have waited for the team to go farther, or even left the night before they started. And judging from the current situation, they seem to be more like they can't wait, or they are extremely afraid that their team will go away, so they hurriedly kill the killer.
Year after year, they didn't have the heart or time to think about it, because they were in trouble again.
At ten o'clock in the evening, they came to a city in a mighty way, and the county commander of the city received them in person and arranged for them to live in a post house in the city.
They had a tiring day, and when the fragrant dinner was served, a feeling of extreme happiness rose in Nian Nian's heart, she stretched out her jade hand, picked up the lotus seed soup, and just wanted to scoop a bite and taste it, when the subtle strange taste rushed into her nose, and she held down Zhu Mei's hand.
"Sister, I don't think there's something wrong with this food. "Nian Nian is like a cat with pricked up ears, vigilantly looking around.
After a while, they heard some commotion outside the door, and she pushed open the door and walked out, and saw a person dressed as a guard going from room to room to inform everyone that there was a problem with eating, and that everyone should stop eating immediately.
They lived in a room on the second floor, leaning on the railing every year, and happened to meet the eyes of Yue Yue, who was standing in the center of the first floor and looking up to make a look.
She stopped the guard and asked him what had happened.
Mr. Yue said that the food was drugged and told everyone not to take it. โ
Sure enough, Nian Nian nodded, it seemed that the group of people was unwilling to kill the prince in the afternoon, and they continued to act.
Nian Nian and Zhu Mei also came to the lobby, and saw the prince sitting silently, his face was cloudy, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
The prince put down the teacup heavily, his face was full of anger, too, whoever was plotted repeatedly and four times would not be happy in his heart, not to mention that he was the prince of a country with a noble status.
"Cangye Country is really bold!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled and coldly ordered, "Don't make a noise about this matter to the county order, and don't spread it, this palace wants to see what waves they can make." โ
The strategist on the side suggested loudly: "Your Highness, the Night Country is too deceitful, and they must give an explanation for this matter, otherwise, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in their hearts!"
"Your Highness, most of us are not safe around us now, for the sake of today, we still have to leave the night and return to Baimo as soon as possible, no matter who this bold person is, everything must be considered on the premise of His Highness's safety!"
The prince waved his hand, signaling that they didn't need to say much, and Nian Nian felt that he subconsciously glanced at Yu Yue, who was sitting leisurely in a corner drinking tea. He said: "Returning to Baimo from here, it will take more than a month, not to mention that this palace would rather stay and compete with this ill-intentioned person than rush back as if fleeing for his life, without losing my Baimo's face." โ
The prince had already spoken, and his position was clear, and everyone could not refute it, so he packed up his things and went back to his room. Before going upstairs every year, I heard the prince ask Yu Yue:
"What do you think, Mr. Yue, what do these people want?"
"Your Highness, so far we can't be sure, they only put sleeping grass in the dinner, this herb has a mild temperament, it can only make the person who takes it fall asleep, and it does not harm the body, but obviously their purpose is far from this, there should be other actions, let's just keep quiet, please enter the urn." โ
Nian Nian and Zhu Mei returned to the room, since Ying Yue was prepared, they just had to cooperate.
In the middle of the moon, the small building was quiet, sitting cross-legged in front of the window every year, her body was shrouded by the moonlight leaking in, and her whole body was faintly flashing with a light blue halo.
She is meditating, there is something strange about this exercise, every time she urges the true qi to run at a certain speed, the surface of her body will emit a faint light, but this little halo is very obvious in the dark night, so she sits in a place with moonlight every year to practice, covering up this special halo.
Her ears twitched, and she faintly heard a rustling sound.
A cold and eerie strange feeling crossed her heart, flowing all over her body, making her shiver slightly, she knew that there must be something dangerous hidden around her at this moment, her senses had always been sharp and precise, and now these sounds alone made her feel uncomfortable.
She frowned and slowly got up, her jade hand lightly touching the ground, but she didn't want a strange and cold feeling from her fingertips.
Nian Nian was startled, withdrew his hand like lightning, and before she could take a breath, she felt something slowly crawl up her body along her left leg.
Snake! With this thought in his mind for a moment, Nian Nian gently kicked his right foot, and sure enough, there was something on the ground next to him.
She calmed down and closed her eyes and listened quietly. At this time, she did not use the moonlight to look around the house, because she was more inclined to trust her sense of hearing than to blur her vision.
The floor in the room, I don't know when, was densely crawled with snakes, their bellies were close to the ground, only occasionally made a very slight sound, they spit snake hyacinth in the dark corner, a pair of snake eyes looked gloomy, without a trace of temperature.
The snake wrapped around her left leg had climbed up her waist smoothly, and the corners of Nian Nian's mouth twitched, and as soon as he grasped the snake's head with his right hand, he lifted it up and put it in the moonlight.
The snake was three feet long, covered with fine, dark scales that shone with a faint light. Nian Nian didn't know if it was poisonous or not, but she knew that this snake was nothing special, it was not a spirit or a monster. Because there are too many ordinary, she can't do anything about them for a while.
She looked over to the bed, and the snakes were wagging their tails and getting ready to climb onto the bed, frowning, striding over, and kicking the snakes aside.
Enraged, the snakes stood up one by one and reacted before attacking. Nian Nian sat on the edge of the bed, turned his jade hand, and was just about to throw this group of disgusting things out of the window in the air, when he heard a rush of footsteps.
A tall figure appeared outside the door, and he kicked it open.
The loud and piercing sound frightened the snakes, and the snakes, who had planned to rush to the year, turned to frantically rush towards the people at the door.
I only heard a strong wind sweep by, and the snakes fell to the ground one by one from mid-air, and there was still not a trace of blood in the fracture.
Nian Nian hid his glowing palm behind him, looked at the severed heads and broken tails all over the ground, and secretly said in his heart, this guy is not only good at immortal methods, but also good at martial arts, he has not used immortal methods from beginning to end, and only used internal strength to shake these snakes into two, I have to say that it is very powerful.
Ying Yue frowned, and her tone was slightly reproachful, "There are so many snakes, don't you know how to shout?" he raised his eyebrows and smiled heroically, "Or are you already scared stupid?"
Nian Nian glared at him, "Be quiet, my sister is still asleep." She shouted dissatisfiedly: "Whoever let you in, I can handle it myself." โ
Ying Yue nodded lazily and looked at her with a smile, "Yes, I am also a little anxious in the next place, I forgot that it was just a group of snakes, and the young girl will definitely be able to clean up the situation." โ
Nian Nian was sullen, "Aren't you going to see the prince, what if he is bitten by a snake?"
Yu Yue put away the smile under his eyes, there was no slightest temperature in his cold eyes, it was even colder than snake eyes, his bright red lips opened and closed, and he spit out a sentence:
"There are no snakes in the other rooms, they're targeting you!"
